MLive and the Muskegon Chronicle are looking for the easiest, tastiest and heartiest tailgate recipes to share with our readers.

Send us your recipes for favorite dips, sandwiches or desserts. We’re especially looking for recipes that are quick and easy to put together before those Friday night games. But we also want to hear what your favorite tailgate food is and how you serve it.

A few recipes will be selected for taste testing by chefs from Baker College’s Culinary Institute of Michigan. The chefs plan to share their favorite tailgate recipes next week. If it all works out, MLive and the Chronicle plan to invite readers to do a taste test, too.

To help you get started with your tailgate recipes, MLive and Chronicle writer, Heather Lynn Peters, who writes the Spunky Kitchen column, will share her favorite tailgate recipe. Be sure to look for her post and follow her at the Spunky Kitchen Facebook page.

Also, while you’re getting your recipe ready, don’t forget to vote in the high school football Game of the Week poll. Be sure to look for sports writer Mark Opfermann’s weekly posts about the poll and who’s leading. Opfermann also often handles the Game of the Week coverage.

You can find the online poll by going to mlive.com/Muskegon and clicking on H.S. Sports under the blue bar at the top of the page. A new poll appears on the page every Friday for the next week's games. You can vote for your favorite team every hour, but don't delay, voting closes at 6 p.m. each Tuesday. Click here to go directly to the poll site.
